June 12, 2025

WING Harry Rees-Weldon has been ruled out of Wales U20s’ World Championship campaign after suffering an injury in training.

- BEN JAMES

The 20-year-old Dragons starlet starred in the Six Nations earlier this year, crossing for an eye-catching try in the stirring upset of Grand Slam-chasing England at the Cardiff Arms Park.

Since then, Rees-Weldon has gone on to make his senior debut for the Men of Gwent, scoring on his debut against the Ospreys.

He followed that up with back-to-back starts in South Africa against the Stormers and Bulls.

However, a leg injury suffered in training means he will now miss the tournament in Italy.
